  "What we did in taking on this giant in our Promised Land would define our lives and ministry. Either we would run away defeated or we would be courageous and victorious with God s help." Hearing God's call to serve as a missionary in the French-speaking world, Joe Portale responded with excitement, boldness, and humility. His lifelong dreams were being fulfilled, and the land God had promised was within reach. But the journey was not easy. From spiritual forces in France to the perilous Sahara desert to war and poverty in Southeast Asia, Joe and his ministry team persevered through many challenges. Their successes and failures provide a roadmap for all who would respond to God's call, an instructive account of pursuing one's life vocation and ministry. There are currently 17 books in this International Adventures series.

  To understand the continued and far-reaching ministry of A. W. Tozer, it is important to know who he was, including his relationship with God. In The Life of A. W. Tozer, James Snyder lets us in on the life and times of a deep thinker who was not afraid to "tell it like it is" and never compromised his beliefs. Tozer's spiritual legacy continues today as his writings challenge audiences to a deeper relationship and worship of God in reverence and adoration. Here is Tozer's life story, from boyhood and his conversion at the age of seventeen, to his years of pastoring and writing more than forty books, at least two regarded as Christian classics that continue to appear on bestseller lists. Examining Tozer's life allows the listener to learn from a prophet with much to say against the compromises he observed in contemporary Christian living and the hope he found in his incredible God.

  Chestbuster - The Rise Fall and...

  In 1970s and ‘80s Las Vegas, James McKines built one of the most invisible drug empires the West Side had ever seen — moving product across three states in a constable’s truck with a badge on the door, operating for twenty years without a single piece of paper connecting his name to the weight. He was the first man in his federal district charged under the continuing criminal enterprise statute. The judge gave him natural life and laughed when he said it. His ten-year-old son got a phone call instead of Disneyland. 
  Twenty-seven and a half years later — through Marion, ADX Florence, and five federal facilities — President Barack Obama signed James McKines’s commutation. He walked out of FCI Phoenix on February 24, 2017. 
  This is Book One of four. It covers the beginning: a boy orphaned by Mississippi, raised by a segregated Las Vegas, shaped by the back door Baker showed him from a gold Thunderbird. The rise of Chestbuster. The fall. The gavel. Every word of it true. 
  His son put a recorder on a kitchen table and said: tell me everything. Not the spy story. Everything. CHESTBUSTER: The Rise, Fall, and Redemption of James McKines is what his father told him. 
  Publisher: Villain Press | Series: Chestbuster, Book 1 of 4 | Author: J.A. McKines

  "Joyce Fidler's life is one of many twists and turns and highs and lows. Sometimes she'll shock you; other times she'll bring you to tears. If you have an alcohol or drug addiction problem, her book will uplift you and encourage you to make important changes in your life. It's not a preachy book; instead, it's very honest and forthright." Terry Hassman-Paulin, Editor at Silver Burdett Ginn (ret.) 
  "A memoir of a frenzied woman" Frank Dungan, TV Producer/Emmy Winning Writer 
  "Joyce Fidler tells a mind-blowing story. Being a musician myself who tripped through that era I knew from the first that this was real, but Fidler's unique POV made it a brand-new experience. I didn't think that I could be shocked, but particular parts of her story left me wide-eyed. The spiritual message left me teary-eyed." Gene Herd, Executive Director of the Hollywood Radio and Television Society (ret.)
